1:6 Scale STAP w/ Battle Droid

[xequae]

Looks awesome! Wish I could afford this, but there is too many other things coming out.

 

[Glennfett]

i like it.i think it looks pretty unique too.
first vehicle in ssc sw line....until the landspeeder...

 

[DrQ2]

Great shots. DrQ2!

It looks perfect displayed against that floor with the stand...

Have you tried setting the STAP at an angle on the base yet?

It doesn't angle, well if it does it doesn't want to move.

You didn't think it was exciting when the STAP's escorted the transports into the capitol but then mysteriously vanished when there was an actual battle?

the Trade Federation had removed themselves from the capitol after Padme had made it to the senate... they didn't want her story of a takeover validated.

Looks great... tbh I can't muster any enthusiam about owning this piece. But Sideshow seems to have done a very nice job on it.

Here's looking forward to the Speederbike

To date, I haven't bought/PO'd any of the droid army items, which sucks because I dreamed of having a nice retinue of them SURROUNDING MY SS 1/6 GRIEVOUS. Pretty sure thats what killed my enthusiasm anyways.

They're not that bad. This makes #25 droids, with #26 coming next month. Last email from SSC they have less than 10 sets in stock.

I've never had anything but positive remarks in any droid threads about how they look, I think you missed the point I was trying to make even though it was in caps and bolded.

Feels like it's going to brake.

Do or do not.....There is no try!

I am going to wait till Monday and call ssc. This way if I am on the phone and they tell me to do it. It breaks i can ask for a replacement. Like the droids if you don't know about the head you can break it.

I did not pay attention to this before, but wouldn't the design of the STAP cause the droid legs to melt down due to engines exhaust?

Not if their made of a material that has a higher melting point than that of the engines exhaust, think of the coating/material on the heat shield of the space shuttle or the Russian spacecraft that takes people up to the international space station and back. Temperatures reach 1400° C (2552° F) on reentry.

Problem is though at least in the clone wars, you have the jedi stealing them and hopping around on them...like anakin in the cw movie.
At the end of the day cool design, just not pratical.

Well, we were talking about how it applied to the Droids. As for non-droids, I would think it would be a great anti-theft device.

Only if your not a droid.

 

[DrQ2]

OK Got it to lean to the the side. You just have to hold it really good the base and he STAP. If you don't it will break.

 

[jedibear]

Lean looks great!
